Details

The latest edition of the NEHRP Recommended Provisions for Seismic Regulations for New Buildings and Other Structures is the seventh edition of this document. Similar to preceding editions, it has the consensus approval of the Building Seismic Safety Council membership.

The Provisions present criteria for the design and construction of new buildings and additions and alterations to existing buildings and non-building structures, such as vessels, silos, piers, hydraulic structures, chimneys, and towers to enable them to resist the effects of earthquake ground motions.

This update consists primarily of new material in select areas intended to keep the document at the cutting edge of seismic design practices.

Examples of new material include:

Anchorage to concrete
Pushover design
Glass in glazed curtain walls
Glazed storefronts and glazed partitions
Simplified design procedures
A comprehensive procedure for the design of structures with energy dissipating devices
A comprehensive treatment of design of steel moment-frame structures based on the research results of a FEMA-funded project started after the 1994 Northridge earthquake.
